JOHN H. OGDEN, OF GRAVELLY, ARKANSAS.
WALKING CULTIVATOB.
Application filed February 18, 1924. Serial No. 693,622.
7 T 0 all whom -52? may concern Be it known that JOHN H. OGDEN, a citizen of theUnited States,residing at Gravelly, in the countyof Yell and State of Arkansas, has invented certain new and useful Improvements in Walking Cultivators, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to walking cultivatorsand it consistsin the novel features hereinafter described and claimed;
An object of the invention is to provide a cultivator structure of the character indicated wherein the cultivator means are pivotally and adjustably connected with a wheel mounted frame, means being provided for adjusting the wheels with relation to each other and transversely of the frame in order that the cultivation may take place at opposite sides of a'row of standing plants and the cultivator may function in the manner of a straddle row, cultivator and the supporting wheels of the frame may be adjusted to run in the bottoms of the furrows at the opposite sides of the row irrespective same.
Figure 4 is a detail sectional view out on the line 4:'.4: of Figure 2. I
Figure 5 is a detail plan view of coupling means used upon the cultivator for connecting the cultivator beam with the frame.
The walking cultivator comprises a tongue 1 of usual pattern and to which is pivotally connected, at a point between the ends, a draft evener bar 2. l steel plate 3 is mounted upon the tongue 1 at a point behind the evener bar 2. Draft bars 4: depend from the end portions of the bar 2 andeach bar 4 is provided with a series of perforations 1 with which draft clevises =1 may be connected in a usual manner. Single trees 5 are pivotally connected with the clevises 4 and to which the draft animals may be hitched in a usual manner.
A sectional arch bar structure is disposed transversely of the plate 3 and the tongue 1 and the inner end of the sections of the arch bar structure .6 overlap each other and are secured to the underside of the plate 3 by means of U-bolts 7 which straddle the sections of the arch bar structure 6 and which have end portions passing through the plate 3 and secured thereto by means of nuts 8 screwed upon the extremities of the end portions of the said U-bolts. The sections of the arch bar structure 6 are provided at their outer ends with rearwardly disposed portions 9 having at their rear ends, outwardly disposed spindles 10 u on which ground engaging wheels 11 are ournalled. The portions 9 of the sections of the arch bar structure are rearwardly disposed in order that the frame of the cultivator and of which the sections of the arch bar structure are component parts may be properly balancedupon the centers of the wheels'll and that the tongue 1 may not bear down upon the necks ofthe draft animals which are hitched to the cultivator frame and used for drawing the same. By loosening the nutsS, the sections of the arch bar structure 6 are released and they may be moved longitudinally with relation to each other whereby the wheels 11 may be moved toward each other or moved away from each other in order that the said wheels may travel in the bottoms of furrows at the opposite sides of a row of standing plants and without regard to the distance or space between the adjacent rows of plants. 7
A second, sectional, arch bar structure 14 is connected'with the plate 3 at a line to the rear of the sectional arch bar structure 6 and the sections of the structure 14 overlap' each other at their inner ends and are secured to the plate 3 bymeans of U-bolts 15. Rods 16 are pivotally connected at their forward ends with the bars 4: and springs 17 are connected with the rear ends of the rods 16 and the rear ends of the springs 17 are connected with the lower outer ends of the sections of the arch bar structure 1 f. Therefore when the draft animals are hitched to the trees5 and while the cultivator is being used, the draft bar 2 may swing and the rods 16 are moved longitudinally andlthe springs 17 will contract and expand and compensate "for the swinging movement of the draft bar 2 and distribute the pulling strain evenly to the arch bar structure 14. By loosening the U-bolts 15 the sections of the arclrbarstructure 14 may be adjusted longitudinally with relation to each other. "Shafts 18 are carried at the lower outer portions of the sec-- tions of the arch bar structure 14 and braces 19 connectthe inner portions of the shafts 13 withthe plate 3. The inner ends of the shafts 18 are spaced from each other.
' termediate portions ofthe blocks 20. Each of the adjacent beams 23. A bracerod29 may be connected at its rear end with either beam 23 is provided at its rear end with an upwardly and rearwardly disposed handle 24. Across head 25 is mounted uponthe -median portion of each beam .23 and cultivator standards 26 areiattachedto the end portions of thecrossheads 25 and disposed one at each side of the beam 23. The standards 26 carry at their lower rear ends, cultivator shovels or plates 27 of conventional form. .Eachcross head 25 is provided at its forward edge with eyes 28 the said eyes being located one ateach side one of the eyes 28 and at its forward end with the corner portion of the .adjacant block 20 and whereby the cross head 25 is braced in its adjusted position upon the attachedrbeam 23. Clevises 30 are mounted-upon the intermediateportions of the beams 23 and coil springs 31 are connected at theirrear ends with the clevisesBOand attheir forward ends with fluted rods 32,
the outer ends of which are connected with v the outer portions of the sections of the cross bar structure 14, and the inner ends of which are mounted upon the inner' portions of the shafts 18. When the blocks 20 are shifted o1 adjusted'along the shafts 13, the upper ends of the springs 31 may be moved along the fluted portions of the rods 32 and consequently the intermediate and rear portions of the beams 23 are re-v silientlysupportedfrom the sectional cross bar structure :14.
The crossb'ar structure 14 is adapted to straddle the row of standing plants when the cultivator is in operation and the beams 23 are. disposed-'at-the oppositesides of the row of standing plants. By reason of the adjusting means hereinbefore described, the
one or both of the'beains 23 may be raised and engaged in the hooks 1'3 wherebyfthe cultivator shovels will clear thesur'facedf" the soil and the cultivator may 'be readily passed upon the ground engaging {supporting wheels "11 'andin a usual manner.
Having described'the invention, what is claimedisz a 1. A walking cultivator comprising a draft tongue, a draft barpivotally'mounted thereon, a plate disposedupo'nthetonguei'at a point behind the draft bar, a sectional arch" bar structure adj us'tab ly connectje'd with the plate, the sectionsoftheerchibar structure being *adj ustable with relation "to" each other, means for fixing the 'sections.:of the arch .bar structure totheoplate, the sec tions of the arch bar structureibeing pro-,
